I went through some major life changes and lost my tanks in a nasty breakup. On to happier times Now I long for an aquarium to occupy my time . So I'm starting from scratch. I haven't bought a thing yet because I want to gather a game plan and buy the appropriate items for my fishies and build from there. So I'm open to ideas, any tanks you wish to build or tank ideas bubbling around you care to share? I am scouring the Internet for ideas, and there are far too many options for my indecisive nature lol. Thanks for the input

That said, the basics can be something like this:

How much room do you have for tank(s)?
How much time/$$ are you willing to invest?
Do you want fish for looks? behaviour? colour?

If we knew a bit about the general area of interest you have in fish, we can offer you better ideas. Good luck!

I have room for about a 100/125 gallon tank. Time and money aren't really a major factor, I've got plenty of time and I can always save up for items if they are too pricey after hours of scouring the Internet I have come up with a tentative list for stock. I was thinking a pair of ghost knifes, a pair of smaller bichirs, a pair of blood parrots, 6 butterfly fish, 4 Kribs and maybe some Congo tetra to round it out. What are your thoughts?
